Canyon County Reviews
Rating 4.2 out of 5 5 reviews
Canyon county is a beautiful place it live. Cities are fast growing, yet slow paced. Although not as diverse as other cities, Canyon County offers a range of unique cultures and experiences. One can undergo a wide array of activities varying from hiking, boating at the lake, fishing, trail walks, to experiencing some of the best food, and shopping. The only change I would like to see is in the school systems. It’s crucial to teach kids to be creative outside-of-the-box thinkers, and over the years I have sadly witnessed many of our creative programs cut due financial problems. Students are missing out on the education they deserve because of inadequate teacher training, budget cuts, and unfortunately votes cut short that are needed to promote schools. Due to this, students are finding it harder to earn money for expensive university costs. These are problems that I believe are extremely important in my community and need to be addressed with care and passion.
Canyon county is so family friendly. We love it here! The community is incredibly supportive of one another. We are big supporters or organized sports of all ages and there are so many to choose from here in the valley.
It feels like a small town area but has a ton to do. There are a lot of places to go out to eat and have fun. Downtown Nampa is a great place. There are great opportunities here as well.
